We are a global team of game lovers who are developing, publishing and innovating the mobile games industry, connecting millions of people around the world daily.
What You Will DoAs a Lead Producer on the Live Operations team, you’ll coordinate and deliver the “live show” for players: new content, events, offers, and incredible moments that solidify and strengthen players’ relationships with our game. You’ll partner closely with Live Ops leadership and a cross-disciplinary team to:

- Facilitate the operating rhythm (planning, execution syncs, risk reviews, launch readiness, post-mortems)
- Ensure that Live Ops is an ideal customer for future software & tools development, by identifying recurring friction and driving concrete process and tooling improvements, all the way to the feature backlog
- 6+ years of production experience on live service games with frequent live events or seasonal beats
- Experience shipping live operations content (events, offers, battle passes, calendars) in a fast-paced environment
- Strong planning and execution fundamentals: scope, milestones, dependency mapping, and risk management
- Clear communicator who can align stakeholders and keep teams unblocked
Bonus Points
- Experience with mobile RPGs or other midcore/core games, with complex economies, gacha mechanics, and event systems
- Familiarity with live-config driven systems, live tuning, and operating within a structured release cadence
- Experience partnering with Product / Economy / Design on event strategy and design
